I hope my weekly What I ate pots inspire you to try something new or just to be okay with what you are eating. For breakfast and lunch I really do eat a lot of the same thing. Lunch I've learned over the years is easiest for me if I make a large bunch of soup, quiche or fritata during the weekend. However you may have leftovers from the night before and just like to pack that up. I just encourage you to eat real food and most importantly enjoy what you are eating. So here goes Wednesday's eats.
Breakfast: Well it's one of my favorites! Avocado toast sunny side up egg, this time I added spinach leaves and tomatoes. I also tried orange, carrot and pineapple juice in my Vitamix. I'm not sure about the carrot texture in the Vitamix vs the juicer. Don't forget the coffee.
Lunch: Creamy quinoa tomato and bean soup. Again one I have a lot; this soup really keeps me full. I used white beans since I had them in my fridge. Also I sliced up two kiwis.
Dinner: I love macaroni and cheese especially in the winter. This version uses manchego cheese, chorizo sausage, pimentos and peas. My son absolutely loves it. It also reheats well for leftovers. I served it with roasted brussel sprouts. Of course wine to drink.
Dessert: I love my sweets and like to finish my day with one. French yogurt cake with peaches I preserved in the summer and whip cream. I found this recipe in Elizabeth Bard's Lunch in Paris, which is a delightful little read.
Bon Appétit!
And as always with love from the Midwest,
Beth
